Elas alinham-se pela rua à medida que eu entro no meu condomínio. Um festival florescente de branco e rosa, alegres lembranças da chegada de dias mais quentes e alegres. Eu fiz uma oração de agradecimento – a primavera chegou! Depois de um inverno sombrio, posso finalmente caminhar lá fora e respirar na beleza da colorida majestade de Deus. Quando abri a porta da garagem, eu olhei para o jardim da frente, onde nossa própria árvore de cerejeira me recebe em casa, suas primeiras flores alegrando Continue Reading

Hope and Faith Bloom in Spring (Weekend Atlanta Journal Column)
They line up the streets as I enter my subdivision. A festival of white and pink bloom, cheerful reminders of warmer and brighter days to come. I utter a prayer of thanksgiving - spring has sprung! After a dreary winter, I can finally walk outside and breathe in the beauty of God’s colorful majesty. As I open the garage door, I gaze at the front yard, where our very own dogwood tree welcomes me home, its first blooms cheering my winter-struck flower bed. Spring is my favorite time of the Continue Reading
El Marcador de Una Milla. ¿¡Tiempo de renunciar!?
Pasaje: Exodo 9 Versículo Clave: “Yo soy Jehová, y yo os sacaré de debajo de las tareas pesadas de Egipto, y os libraré de su servidumbre, y os redimiré con brazo extendido, y con juicios grandes.” Exodo 6:6 El se apartó de la presencia del Señor, repitiendo las palabras que Dios le había dado días antes. “Y os redimiré con brazo extendido, y con juicios grandes”. El se apoderó de esa promesa mientras se preparaba para solicitar otra audiencia con el Rey de Egipto. Entre usted y yo – Continue Reading

I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.” Exodus 6:6 He left the presence of the Lord, repeating the words God had given him several days before. “I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgements”.

Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the Lord?” v.11 I could see my younger daughter muttering something under her breath as she stared at the beam in front of her. It was time for the frightful cartwheel on beam, part of her gymnastics routine. My heart skipped a beat. “Thank God I’m not a mother of boys,” I Continue Reading
El Amor Verdadero No Necesita Cincuenta Sombras de Gris
(Escrito para el Periódico Atlanta Journal Constitution) Llegó el frenesí. Hollywood acaba de sacar su versión muy anticipada en película del libro de mayor ventas internacional “Cincuenta Sombras de Gris”. Estaba visitando a la familia de mi esposo el fín de semana pasado cuando mi sobrina me dijo que las entradas para ver la película estaban agotadas para el día Sábado, día de San Valentín. Ciertamente era un día de lanzamiento muy estratégico para los productores. En mi humilde opinión, no Continue Reading
